Read the statements together.
Assess the financial position
Review assets, liabilities and working capital from the available balance sheet. Keep period-end balances separate from activity over the year.
How do current assets compare with current liabilities?
Explain the calculation
Ask for the inputs behind a margin or ratio. If a value is missing, the answer should preserve the gap rather than produce an unsupported result.
Show the operating-margin formula and the figures used.
ANALYSIS WITH CONTEXT
The same number can tell a different story.
Financial statement analysis starts with the reporting basis. A useful answer connects a figure to its entity, period and definition before interpreting what it means.
Entity or group
Confirm whether the statement covers one legal entity or consolidated companies. A subsidiary’s revenue is not its parent group’s revenue.
Movement or balance
Revenue covers a period. Cash and liabilities are balances at a date. Align them before explaining a change.
Reported or calculated
Keep reported profit distinct from derived margins. Adjusted earnings and statutory earnings may use different definitions.

YOUR QUESTIONS
Before you start.
Ten answers about ai financial statement analysis.
It is the process of examining income statements, balance sheets and cash-flow information to understand business performance and financial position. The conclusions depend on the quality, scope and period of the available records.
You identify the company and ask a question. Veripoint uses available company records to explain relevant figures and can show supporting evidence. Review the returned data and any calculations before using the conclusion.
Available records may include income-statement, balance-sheet and cash-flow information. Detail varies by company and reporting period; a company record does not guarantee all three statements.
Yes, where records are available. Use the exact entity and ask which periods and financial fields can be returned.
Yes. Specify the listed parent or subsidiary and ask whether results are consolidated. Keep statutory and adjusted measures labelled separately.
Horizontal analysis examines changes in a financial line item across periods. Compare compatible periods, currencies and accounting scope, and identify restated figures where supplied.
Vertical analysis expresses line items relative to a base within the same statement, such as cost of sales as a percentage of revenue. The relevant input values must be available and the base must be non-zero.
You can request ratios supported by the available figures. Ask for the formula, input values and reporting basis. A missing or zero denominator should not produce a valid-looking ratio.
No. Begin with the company identity and your question. The workflow uses available company records without requiring an accounts upload.
Open Sources & evidence, compare periods and units, and follow original links when supplied. Review calculations separately from reported values and retain any unresolved limitations.
